The International Atomic Energy Agency's Board of Governors this evening (Wednesday) approved a resolution calling on Iran to cooperate fully with UN inspectors in the investigation into suspected nuclear activity at three undeclared sites in Iran. Thirty countries voted in favor, Russia and China opposed it, and three countries opposed it. India, Pakistan and Libya abstained This is
the first time in two years that the IAEA Board of Governors has passed a condemnation decision against Iran.
The previous decision also called on Iran to cooperate with UN inspectors on the suspicious sites. However, the condemnation decision will not be of the highest severity, will not stipulate that Iran does not implement the UN Security Council Non-Proliferation Treaty and will not address the issue .

At the beginning of last week, the agency's director general, Rafael Grossi, distributed to the member states of the IAEA Board of Governors two reports regarding the Iranian nuclear program that lit red lights in Washington and European capitals.
The first report stated that Iran
had so far produced about 43 kilograms of enriched uranium to a level of 60 percent. If Iran enriched this amount to a level of 90 percent, it would be close to the amount of enriched uranium needed to assemble one nuclear bomb.
Serious answers to UN inspectors' questions about the source of the uranium particles found at three undeclared sites in Iran where secretive nuclear activity was allegedly carried out.
